Afroplug Night Anniversary is the party celebrating Afroplug’s fifth anniversary, taking place on Friday 20 November 2026 at the Ancienne Belgique in Brussels. It embodies the very essence of Afroplug: Afro, Caribbean and Latin music from the diasporas, brought to life by DJs in the club. It will be a journey through the music of the diasporas, with a futuristic and danceable twist – not to be missed.

Afroplug is a music tech platform and sample label based in Belgium, founded out of passion five years ago and with an international focus. Starting from scratch, it now has over 200,000 customers worldwide, covering more than 100 Afro, Caribbean and Latin genres: afrobeats, amapiano, dancehall, shatta, bouyon and dembow. Afroplug 2.0, launched in May 2026, enables producers, artists and DJs to create their own profiles, publish their music and access loop packs, plugins and creative tools.
